Ohaus Scout SJX622N/E NTEP Approved 6000d Class III Scale is brand new as of May 2016 and in stock ready to ship today. When the security switch is placed in the locked position as required for legal for trade weighing the Ohaus SJX622N/E has a maximum weighing capacity of 620 grams and the display increments in 0.1 gram divisions. When the security switch placed in the unlocked position (also called NON Legal for Trade mode) the Ohaus SJX622N/E has a maximum weighing capacity of 620 grams and the display increments in 0.01 gram divisions.
The SJX622N/E is marketed to the precious metal, specialty tea, leaf tobacco, herbal and spice industry when small quantities are sold by weight in either grams, ounces or pennyweight. Weights & Measurements Inspector require a legal for trade scale for use in commercial applications when product is sold by weight. When the security switch placed in the locked position "d"(value of scale division) and the "e" (value of verification scale division) are both 0.1 grams.
Easy-to-use four-button operation along with a low profile housing measuring 8.8 x 8.0 x 3.5 inches while offering a large 4.7 inch diameter weighing platform are big selling points. The scale operates on either AC Adapter or four(4) standard AA batteries (not included) for complete portability. Select from multiple connectivity options available for data logging and communication. Ohaus offers expanded connectivity options including RS232, USB Host, USB Device, Ethernet and Bluetooth module making the Ohaus Scout SJX the most versatile portable digital scale on the market today for data logging and communications.
The Scout SJX Series is equipped with a large backlit display, fast stabilization time, multiple weighing units, application modes and offers a truly user-friendly weighing experience. The superior mechanical overload protection system of the Scout is comprised of a high-strength stainless steel pan and an impact-resistant plastic pan support. This enables the balance to safely withstand loads up to 10 times its rated capacity.
For years people screamed about the design of the AND EK600i scale and how you needed to purchase A&D proprietary design rechargeable battery that would cost you over $200 just for the battery. Well Ohaus heard those complaints and we anticipate selling a lot less EK600i this year and a lot more Scout SJX622N/E. For even a better value we recommend the Ohaus Scout SJX1502N/E since you'll get a larger weighing platform and greater weighing capacity for a few pennies more.
The Ohaus Scout SJX622 electronic scale meet the requirements for a legal for trade scale as a Class III weighing device defined in Handbook 44. All this information can be verified by downloading the CofC # 16-015 so you can printout this certificate to check with your Weights & Measurements Inspector if they will allow you to use the SJX622 for your particular weighing application. The SJX622 is NOT recommended for any medical marijuana dispensaries or jewelry/precious metals weighing applications in states like Minnesota that require pawnshops weighing gold and silver to increment in 0.01 gram graduations. Remember once you slide the security switch in the locked position the SJX622N/E display will only show 0.1 gram graduations.
If you haven't noticed scale manufacturers price digital scales for the jewelry market for a lot less verses to the laboratory market. If you were planning on buying the Ohaus Scout SPX422 or Ohaus SPX622 we can sell you the Scout SJX622N/E for a lot less money. For the laboratory or school chemistry classroom as long as you leave the security switch in the unlocked position the Scout SJX622N/E will display in 0.01 grams increments.
Beware of other vendor's trying to sell you the Ohaus TAJ Series telling you it is a gold scale like the models TAJ203, TAJ202, TAJ402 or TAJ602 since none of these TAJ models are NTEP Approved. Also other dishonest vendors telling you to buy the Ohaus SPJ Jewelry Scales like the SPJ202/US, SPJ402/US or SPJ602/US since they have a special and a super deal. Do they tell you none of the SPJ models are at NTEP Approved and also the SPJ is discontinued and what is left for a warranty?? It is not worth playing games if you are using the scale for a commercial weighing application since Weights & Measures Inspectors are not going to let you use an Ohaus TAJ or SPJ and many times you can get a hefty fine for not using the correct scale. Plus when you add the SJX622N/E to the shopping cart the price will be a lot lower than $346.50 (Ohaus has a MAP preventing us for advertising the true selling price until you add to cart). Finally the SJX622N/E offers more features, better electronics and more weighing capacity than the TAJ or SPJ.
If you downloading the CofC # 16-015 and look in the "Standard Features and Options" section you will see the Ohaus Scout SJX622 uses a Mettler Toledo 30254251 strain gauge load cell. Equipped with superior weighing technology from this Mettler load cell it delivers fast repeatable, reliable weighing results with a stabilization time as fast as 1 second resulting in quick results and increased efficiency.
Bright backlit LCD & 4 button keypad enables efficient operation and ease of use. The sprint leveling bubble located to the right of the display allows you to know whether your scale is level to deliver the most accurate weighing results. The Scout's large backlit display increases readability in low light working conditions, and is easier to view from a distance. The Scout SJX622N/E features a 4.7 inch diameter stainless steel weighing platform.

Before you make your final decision see the Ohaus Scout SJX1502N/E. You can buy the SJX1502N/E for MUCH LE$$ than the SJX622N/E but instead of 620 gram capacity you can get 1500 gram weighing capacity.
Learn how to calibration the Ohaus Scout digital scale. In the YouTube video above we perform a span calibration that uses two weight values: zero and a weight value at or near the digital scale's capacity. We don't stop here we also walk you step by step how through the procedure for linearity calibration, which minimizes deviation between actual and displayed weights within the scale's weighing range. Three weight values are used: zero, a weight value within the scale's weighing range which is set to 1000g, and a weight value at or near the balance's specified capacity which is preset at 1500g for the SJX1502. The steps to perform calibration for the SJX1502N/E are similar for the SJX622NE and various Ohaus Scout SPX, SKX or SJX models except the value of calibration weight used for calibration is different. Calibration weights are NOT included with Ohaus SJX622NE but can be purchased at www.calibrationweight.com
The new Ohaus Scouts Portable Balances are their latest generation of weighing perfection. Since the inception of the Ohaus Scout over 2 decades ago Ohaus' scale engineers have refined the electronics, performance and features to deliver a spectacular weighing instrument. Stabilization time as fast as 1 second and high resolution load cell with
62,000d resolution and readability to 0.01g, deliver extremely
quick, precise and repeatable weighing results.
The optional auxiliary display kit is an affordable solution when Weights & Measures Inspectors require a secondary display so the customer can see in real time. Typical this is referred to as "Direct Sales" - both buyer & seller are present and the scale needs to be positioned in such a way that the scale is in full view and the scale display can easily be read by both parties. Always check with your local Weights & Measures Inspectors for exactly all the requirements you must meet since some inspectors follow the rule exactly while other inspectors are very lenient.
See as we unbox and review all the features of the new Ohaus Scout. What comes with the scale, how do you setup the scale, where do the batteries go, found the underhook?? All your questions can be answered by watching this informative YouTube video above. We use the Ohaus SJX1502N/E but most of the topics reviewed are similar to the Ohaus SJX622N/E.

The Ohaus Scout Scale is equipped with a weigh below hook for weighing below the balance. Before turning the balance over remove the weighing pan and platform support, place the transportation lock in the locked position to prevent damage. To use this feature remove the protective cover for the weigh below opening. The digital scale can be supported using lab jacks or any other convenient method. Ensure the scale is level and secure. Power on the Scout Scale, then use a string or wire to attach items to be weighed. Below weighing is used for weighing magnetic materials, large samples that won't fix on the weighing platform or extremely hot or cold sample that would effect the scale's electronics if placed directly on the weighing platform due to thermal heat/cold transfer. Additional applications would be specific gravity determination.
The Ohaus Scout operates on AC adapter (included) or 4 AA batteries (not included). There are four(4) adjustable feet to assist in leveling your Ohaus Scout digital scale.
The security / lockout switch can be used to lock out the Scout Scale to prevent configuration changes. This is required if the scale is used for a commercial weighing application. Your Weights & Measures Inspector will use a wire with lead crimp to prevent unlocking the scale.
The Ohaus Scout Scales have a red transportation lock on sub platform of the balance that needs to be disengaged before you start your weighing. Simply turn the red pointer 90° counter-clockwise.
The impact-resistant pan support safeguard against shock and overloading the balance in rugged and demanding environments. The Scout engineered with superior overload protection rated at 10 times the capacity of the digital scale.

Scale manufacturer build weighing devices with a strain gauge loadcell since they are much lower in cost verses a magnetic force restoration (MFR). You can see the weighing performance difference in this YouTube video "Magnetic force restoration balance verses strain gauge digital scale". If you want the best review either the Mettler Toledo JS3002G/A, JS4002G/A or JS6002G/A since these models use Mettler patented Monobloc magnetic force restoration weigh sensor.
